Trainz 22: BR Grouping Flat Wagon Pack 1

The BR Grouping Flat Wagon Pack 1 for Trainz Railroad Simulator 2022 was developed by Pilotwoo and released on 27 February 2025. Published by N3V Games, this downloadable content (DLC) introduces four historically accurate flat wagons from the "Big Four" British railway companies: the Great Western Railway (GWR), London and North Eastern Railway (LNER), London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS), and Southern Railway (SR). These wagons were extensively used in the early to mid-20th century for transporting various loads unsuitable for traditional open wagons.

The pack includes the GWR Macaw B, LNER 45T Quad Bogie Bolster, LMS Weltrol Wagon, and SR Flatrol Wagon. Each model features three levels of weathering—clean, medium, and heavy—and is available in both their original Grouping-era liveries and British Railways (BR) liveries. The wagons are equipped with animated couplings, vacuum brakes, and handbrakes, enhancing the realism of the simulation. The models were created by GreatWesternWorks and Albinopigeon, known for their attention to historical accuracy and detail.

Promotion for the BR Grouping Flat Wagon Pack 1 was carried out through the official Trainz platforms, including the Steam store and the Trainz Portal. The DLC was highlighted as part of the ongoing effort to provide Trainz players with high-quality, immersive experiences that capture the essence of real-world railroading. The release was positioned as a significant addition for players interested in exploring British rail operations and landscapes.

Upon release, the DLC received positive feedback from the Trainz community, particularly among enthusiasts of British railways. Players appreciated the attention to detail in the wagon models and the inclusion of various features that enhanced the realism of the simulation. The addition of these historical wagons was seen as a valuable contribution to the game's diverse library of content, offering more options for players interested in freight operations.
